The average electric bill in the U.S. is about $137 per month—an amount that can vary significantly month by month, according to a recent study by MarketWatch. That gives me a giggle because in California I don't know anyone with a house paying that little per month - at least not if they have air conditioning. Having solar panels or using individual room heating/air conditioning units will help but I digress. This article is just about what states have the least, and most, expensive electric bills on average. For those on a fixed income every penny counts so this should be considered if you are looking at a move.
Utah comes in as the cheapest when it comes to electricity and Hawaii is the most expensive. (Yes, it makes sense that it would be an island in the middle of the Pacific.) Realtor.com put the numbers together so pop over to their article for more in depth information. Interestingly, California didn't even make the top 5 most expensive.
